Answer 1

Thanks For Your Question Mr.Omar

Well God know that we can't love them equally Islam didn't teach us to equally love them he ordered us to equally treat them ( like spending money, time equally fulfilling everything they need equally)

Allah clearly says in the Quraan : You will never be able to do perfect justice between wives even if it is your ardent desire, so do not incline too much to one of them (by giving her more of your time and provision) so as to leave the other hanging (i.e. neither divorced nor married). And if you do justice, and do all that is right and fear Allah by keeping away from all that is wrong, then Allah is Ever Oft­Forgiving, Most Merciful. [4 : 3 ]

We only know this from hadith and from what we are told from other people. I think that the entire purpose was to treat the wives equally however. You can love one more than another, but you still ahve to treat them equally. If he treated them equally, then there was nothing wrong.
But from what I've read, there have been mess ups private life. We're all human, we should all strive to be better, and not limit ourselves by anothers failures.

Personally, I don't support polygamy. I only justify it under the most extreme of circumstances. And it's not physically or mentally possibly to love everyone equally. Polygamy is just a bad idea, that's why the Quran puts great stipulations on who can and cannot practice polygamy.

in accordance to Islam, the entire international should be Muslim or lower than the Muslim State's authority. Christian and Jew States have the rights to pay taxes and stay what they're or change into Muslims yet Pagans ought to change into Muslims or they die. in this form, Islam is terrorism. If the rustic isn't ruled in accordance to Islam, no longer something occurs. even with the undeniable fact that the problem isn't Islam, different religions have their own strategies too. the problem is discrimination. Discrimination would take position in gender, faith, race, united states, social type and kingdom -different animals and flowers and so on-. If we can settle for that we are all residing beings and an same, there heavily isn't an issue in the international.

Answer 4

Salam (Peace)!
That's a good question! Yes i've heard of reports that he loved Aisha (RA) the most. No, that's not setting a bad example. We all know and Allah (SWT) knows that the nature of the heart is that it can like one thing, love another and dislike another. You cannot control the feelings of your heart. It may be that a man has 4 wives and he loves one of them the most because of her personality and likewise, but if he treats all of his wives equally despite that feeling for his that one wife, he is setting a good example. Because our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was a human being just like us, he couldn't possibly control the nature of his heart for that is in Allah (SWT)'s Hands, but he set a good example by being fair and just to ALL of them. I hope i answered you well, inshallah.
Take care!

Answer 5

no I think you misunderstood this brother. Islam Says that you must be just among your wives and equal with time , money , living conditions material things etc. but states that you can not be equal with matters of the heart, meaning you may love one wife more but must treat everyone the same.

Answer 6

I don't see why a man shouldn't love all of his wives equally. After all, I love all seven of my MEN equally, except for maybe those two boys I keep on the shelf for midnight snacks. The more love, the better. Have orgies!

Answer 7

Muslims believe that God revealed his direct word for humanity to Muhammad (c. 570–632) through the angel Gabriel and earlier prophets, including Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. Muslims believe that Muhammad is the last prophet, based on the Qur'anic phrase "Seal of the Prophets" and sayings of the prophet of Islam himself, and that his teachings for humanity will last until the Day of the Resurrection. Muslims assert that the main written record of revelation to humanity is the Qur'an, which is flawless, immutable, and which Muslims believe is the final revelation of God to humanity.

Muslims hold that Islam is the same belief as that of all the messengers sent by God to humanity since Adam, with the Qur'an, the text used by all sects of the Muslim faith, codifying the final revelation of God. Islamic texts depict Judaism and Christianity as prophetic successor traditions to the teachings of Abraham. The Qur'an calls Jews and Christians "People of the Book", and distinguishes them from "Polytheists". However, Muslims believe that some people have distorted the word of God by deliberately altering words in meaning, form and placement in their respective holy texts, such as Jews changing the Torah and Christians the Injeel. This perceived distortion is known as tahrif, or tabdīl, meaning "alteration, substitution". This doctrine is accepted by most Muslims; some relatively small sects, such as Mu'tazili and Ismaili, as well as a few Islamic scholars and some members of various liberal movements within Islam, reject the view that the Qur'an is a correction of Jewish and Christian scriptures.[citation needed]

However, some Muslims believe that Islam also emphasises compassion as well as the pursuit of justice, equality, and knowledge are equally important as belief in Allah, the Qur'an, etc.

equality refers to treatment and resources and even in time. and prophet Mohammed(PBUH) did that, he even used to take one wife on a battle(like roles). that is what he owns but no human being owns his feelings. and prophet Mohammed(PBUH) used to ask ALLAH to forgive him in what he does not own meaning that point in particular.

Answer 9

Dear, i think there is a big misunderstanding for this point in islam.
I am muslim, and i see that islam has not incariage muslims to marry more than one woman.
islam did not say ( get married but equal all your wifes).
islam said( if you afraid not to be fair with all your wifes do not get married with more than one.) what you think he should be fair, he should be fair of beeing punished. so internaly it means do not do that, unless you had to, had to, had to, had to,..........

Salam Alaykum Bro;
Having one wife is essential, having one more than wife is for not to leave them alone; not for loving all of them. Do think twice, love one women!
Es Salam-ı Alaykum
